Description

A clear night at last!  It's been an unusually heavy monsoon season in Arizona.  That's not a complaint.  Because of the drought, we desperately need to catch up on rainfall.  After weeks of cloudy nights, I finally had a chance to image.  Due to the bright moon, I needed to shoot in narrowband only.  To maximize my limited time, I ran two refractors; one for Ha and the other for OIII.  Fortunately, it went well.  Who knows when I'll see another clear night.
